Recipe

PRE TIME: 1 hr 40 min

COOKING TIME: 1 hr 35 min

TOTAL TIME: 3 hr 15 min

2 SERVING

Ingredients:

2 lb. pork belly
ㅤ Dry Rub
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1 tsp. cumin powder
1 tsp. smoked paprika
1½ tsp. five-spice powder
2 tsp. brown sugarㅤ ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ
ㅤ Marinade for Pork Belly Skin
1 tsp. white vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. olive oil

Directions:

Step 1 -【Dry Rub】

In a bowl, mix together the salt, garlic salt, onion powder, Italian seasoning, ground black pepper, cumin, smoked paprika (optional), five-spice powder, and brown sugar.

Step 2

Slice the pork belly horizontally and vertically with the skin side down. The cuts should only go through ½-inch without from the other side without cutting through the skin.

Step 3

Apply the dry spice mix we created earlier evenly onto the pork belly. Make sure it gets in all the crevices from the slices we made. Remember, do not apply it to the skin side.

Step 4

Fold a foil sheet to approximately the same size as the pork belly, fold the edges and corners up to form a dish and place the meat into it. Make sure the skin side is facing up.
